Design Wall Monday, May 18, 2026


I made quite a lot of progress on Moonflower yesterday.  There is still pressing required and a bunch more to sew, but it is coming along nicely.  I will be back at it today.

There are still quite a lot to sewn into 1/2 blocks.  It is going a lot quicker than I had though it might.  I am finding the need to choose the right combination of fabrics.  Can't have the same fabrics touching each other.  Everything was sewn randomly, you wouldn't think this problem would exist.

Head back here on Wednesday to see how far I get on this 2026 UFO.  Enjoy your week ahead =^.^=


Sunday Stash Report, May 17, 2026


My Kittens is complete =^.^=  Like all my projects...I like this one too!  I have a jumbo gray ric rac to add between the top and the binding once it's quilted.  Now to decide on what quilting design to put in the sashing?  Kittens will be mailed to Kerry sometime this week.  I have some strips for Kerry's Moonflower to share that will be included in the package.  It has been hard to locate charcoals.


Speaking of Moonflower, I have all three rows of the 1/2 block sewn.  Today I am working to put the three rows together and then the block of two of these 1/2 blocks to make one block.  This should go together pretty quick.  I am starting to think of a "K" name for my Moonflower...help me please.

For now I will claim Kittens as used fabric and happily report that no fabric was added to my stash.

Used this week: 5 yards
Used YTD: 126.25 yards 
Purchased this week: 0 yards
Purchased YTD: 23.5 yards
Net used in 2026: 102.75 yards

Wednesday Workings, May 13, 2026


Sharing with you today is Kepler.  A completion before a UFO =^.^=  This comes to me via a friend's sister.  It is the last project to finish that I have from her.  This will be a charity quilt.

I am still working on Kittens, but hope to have it into a top this week.  I have all the fabrics needed to pass on to Kerry.  Next up on the design wall will be September Sky.  September Sky will fill every inch of my huge design wall.  After September Sky comes down Moonflower will take its place.

In the evening I have a binding project to work on that should be done by Friday.  Friday is Rosie's Sew Day =^.^=

Enjoy your Wednesday!
